Making a route permanent

Andrew Kaplan — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 08:50:11 GMT

Hi there --

I recently ran the route add command using the following syntax:

route add 132.183.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 10.1.1.240

This is a route that I would like to make permanent. What is the best method to use to accomplish this? Thanks.

The route needs to be added to /etc/rc.config.d/netconf.

Add to /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

ROUTE_DESTINATION[2]=132.183.0.0
ROUTE_MASK[2]="255.255.0.0"
ROUTE_GATEWAY[2]=10.1.1.240
ROUTE_COUNT[2]="1"
ROUTE_ARGS[2]=""
